Unbound’s core product is an AI Gateway that plugs into commonly used tools (e.g., Cursor, Roo, Cline or internal copilots) to provide real-time protection, model routing, and usage analytics for enterprise AI. Instead of simply blocking prompts, the platform redacts sensitive content in real time and reroutes high-risk requests to internal open-source models hosted in the organization’s cloud, preserving workflows while preventing data exposure. The company reports it has prevented the leakage of hundreds of secret credentials and more than 500 instances of personally identifiable information; customers have also cited prevention of over 7,000 potential data leaks. Unbound enables fine-grained control over model access and cost, letting teams allocate premium models to high-stakes workflows and route lighter tasks to smaller open-source models—mid-market customers have saved more than $10,000 annually and, per the company, cut AI tooling costs by nearly 70%. The product is in use with a growing base of mid-market and enterprise customers across sectors including tech and healthcare, including a deployment that supported 100+ engineers integrating Gemini 2.5 into production. The founding team—CEO Rajaram Srinivasan (former data security lead at Palo Alto Networks and Imperva) and CTO Vignesh Subbiah (former founding team member at Tophatter and Shogun)—draws on enterprise security and infrastructure experience to scale the product. Future plans for the new funding include expanding integrations across the AI ecosystem, deepening model routing capabilities, and supporting internal model orchestration for enterprises adopting open-source LLMs.

VISO TRUST provides an AI-driven third-party risk management (TPRM) platform that collects, analyzes, and continuously monitors vendor artifacts to produce real-time, evidence-based assessments. The platform automates vendor assessments, analyzes control presence, testing methodologies, exceptions, and Nth-party references, and integrates with existing workflows to reduce manual burden. VISO TRUST says it cuts vendor assessment and onboarding time by up to 90%, completes rapid assessments in 5–7 days, and achieves a 98% vendor adoption rate; customers include Upwork, Instacart, Notion, and Bain Capital. The company aggregates sources such as breach advisories, SBOMs, and SEC filings to provide continuous security intelligence and real-time insights. Following a $24M funding round, VISO TRUST plans to accelerate platform innovation, scale its artifact-based platform, and build an adaptable AI governance framework focused on real risk reduction. It serves a global customer base across sectors including financial services, healthcare, and technology. Viso Trust is a San Francisco-based third-party cyber risk management platform co-founded by former CISO Paul Valente (CEO) and security and technology leader Russell Sherman (CTO). The product leverages document heuristics, machine learning, and natural language processing to discover, classify, and assess relevant control language in artifacts that third parties already have. This automation is intended to free risk and security teams from manual tasks like reading documents and analyzing spreadsheets. In March 2022 the company raised $11M in a Series A led by Bain Capital Ventures, with participation from Work-Bench, Sierra Ventures, Lytical Ventures and individual investors including Kevin Mandia, George Kurtz, and Doug Merritt. BCV partner Enrique Salem will join Viso Trust’s board of directors as part of the round. In under a year the company has scaled rapidly among customers ranging from hyper-growth tech companies to Fortune 500 enterprises across industries such as banking, automotive, and retail. Viso Trust builds a platform that leverages AI and a "social due diligence" network to deliver continuous third-party risk reports. The platform automatically extracts data from source documents and audits to surface key information about vendor relationships. The company validated its core concepts with over 300 chief information security officers and security professionals and cites an early customer, Ilumio, which reduced security staff time per third‑party relationship from more than eight hours to 30 minutes. Viso Trust said it raised $3 million and will use the funds to support expansion and hiring and to invest in sales, marketing, and R&D. The product aims to eliminate questionnaire-based interactions and speed vendor security reviews across additional risk areas such as business continuity and privacy. The founders previously led security teams at LendingClub and ASAPP, and the company is San Francisco-based.

Solve Intelligence has built a patent lifecycle platform that supports invention harvesting, application drafting, continuations, divisionals, and office-action responses, integrating tightly with tools such as Microsoft Word while providing enterprise-grade security and confidentiality controls. In April 2026 the company introduced Charts, an AI product that generates and analyzes infringement and invalidity claim charts, standard-essential patent mappings, freedom-to-operate reviews, and portfolio-level comparisons, complete with citation support and exposed reasoning for traceability. More than 400 IP teams across six continents already rely on Solve’s software, with customers reporting 60–80 % time savings on drafting tasks. The firm positions itself as the “Copilot for IP law,” aiming to unify a fragmented patent ecosystem into a single workflow and data layer. With the new capital, Solve plans to deepen R&D, broaden its platform into litigation support and high-volume patent analysis, and establish offices in New York City and Munich. The company is actively hiring across AI research, patent law, and software engineering. Including the latest round, Solve has raised a total of $55 million to date.
